What to do in case of battery drain out in the middle of the road??

[alwayz_yummy]

be careful kayo sa pag jumpstart ng EFI cars...baka ma-overload ang ECU ng lakas ng kuryente.

and kung hihingi kayu ng jumpstart, dapat buhay ang mahina ng sasakyan.

nga pala, di pwede kadyutin ang matic, (carb man or EFI/diesel) connected ang starter sa P at N lang.

[chuaed]

the right jumper cable connections are (+) of good battery to (+) of discharged battery, and (-) of good battery to ground point of car with discharged battery, then start the car with the good battery, rev up to around 2000 rpm, then start the car with the dead battery.

thats what i ment... susmaryosep mali english ko....

HERE MY ADVICE TO START YOUR ENGINE WITH JUMP LEADS...

1. Connect one end of the red jump lead to the positive terminal of the other car's battery. (colored red or marked with a P or a+ sign).

2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of the discharged battery.

3. Connect one end of the black lead to the negative terminal of the other battery. (colored Black or marked with an N or a- sign)

4. Connect the other end of the black lead to the cylinder block or some other place where it will be in contact with the negative terminal of the discharged battery.

*NOTE: BATTERY OF THE OTHER CAR SHOULD BE AT THE SAME VOLTAGE.

The manufacturers of most modern automobiles prohibits push starting even for manual transmission models. The reason is stated in the manual. Something about wreaking havoc on your emissions control system (?).

For older vehicles, ok lang naman.

Tama yung steps outlined in the earlier post. I jumpstared a dead Ford Lynx last Feb 10 following that procedure.

yes sir tama po kayo.. even though diesel?

For old school diesels, ok lang. But AFAIK, hindi na din pwede sa mga newer diesels lalo na yung may mga catalytic converters.
